Experiencing Interruptions?

A way for Tomás

Tomás, desperate, knocks insistently on the door of a lonely house. Nobody opens it. When he leaves the place, he sees some bushes moving and goes into a wooded path. Along the way, from his memories, he faces several episodes of fear in his life until he reaches the exit of the path, which takes him back to the door of the house. Tomás enters and talks with a woman (who represents death), at which point he decides to face his fears.

Director Biography - Andrés Ricaurte / Martín Agudelo Ramírez

Biography & Filmography of Film director.

Andrés Ricaurte
Andrés Ricaurte was born on June 8, 1977 in Medellín,
Colombia. His childhood is lived between his hometown and
Bello, a city a few kilometers away. Since he was a child
he was concerned about the events and characters that
inhabited the streets and decided to walk through them and
live it without prejudices. At the age of 33 and after
dealing with hundreds of stories of understanding and
living with Death as an elusive friend during such a rush,
he decides to return to home and study to be someone in
life. He studied Film and Television Production at a state
university and began a career to capture on paper what he
had experienced and get on images what he had learned, from
the hand of great people who love that beautiful art called
Cinema, just like him; which is nothing more than the
possibility of narrating life.
As a director, writer and director, he recorded his first
short film in 2012 and then he dedicated himself to writing
while working on various film productions in different
departments. In 2018 he resumed the intention of directing
and began to incorporate cinematographic narratives and
aesthetics into music video clips, an industry in high
demand in the city and also two short films, one on the way
to festivals and the other in the post-production process.
In the course of this year, he is writing and developing
his debut with a long-term story and in pre-production of a
feature film that will be recorded in early 2021.
